Full Synthetic Oil

Many car manufacturers now insist on full synthetic oil. If so, you need to protect your warranty with just the right engine oil, and exactly the right specification.

Does your car need full synthetic engine oil?

Many car manufacturers now insist on the latest specification full synthetic oil, which you have to use at every oil change in order to protect your warranty and enable your engine to perform at its best. Manufacturers of high performance European cars have been recommending full synthetic engine oils for well over a decade. Many of these manufacturers, including Audi, Volkswagen, Jaguar Land Rover and Aston Martin recommend Castrol EDGE, which is an advanced full synthetic engine oil.

Castrol engineers work directly with auto makers to create the strongest possible engine oils, engineered specifically for the surface types and tolerances found within these engines. In addition to meeting the manufacturers' recommendations, full synthetic oils offer benefits like extended drain intervals, better performance in high operating temperatures and enhanced protection for engines under extreme stresses.
